B# On Demand abandons own Federal Circuit appeal

On April 22, 2022, the Federal Circuit granted B# On Demand LLC's motion to dismiss its Federal Circuit appeal in Case No. 22-1357 (see below). Unified had won on all issues at the PTAB (IPR2020-00995), which resulted in claims 1–10, 13–22, and 25–34 of U.S. Patent 9,553,880 being found unpatentable. The patent is related to on-demand distribution of subscription media and had been asserted against Spotify.
